WEST: NORAD Head Says Russia Increasing Arctic Long Range Air Patrols

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. – While Russian military aircraft have stepped up their activity everywhere from the North Sea to the Baltic to the Black Sea in the last year they have also been spotted more frequently closer to the U.S. territory in the Arctic, the head of U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) told USNI News on Tuesday.

“They’ve been very aggressive – under my NORAD hat – for us in the Arctic,” he said to USNI News following a keynote address at the WEST 2015 conference.
“Aggressive in the amount of flights, not aggressive in how they fly.”

Since the March seizure of the Ukrainian region of Crimea by Russian forces Moscow has significantly stepped up air patrols in Europe, Asia and near the Americas.

The flights extend as far North as the edge of American air space near Alaska and as far South as U.S. holdings in Guam.

During the Cold War, Russian long-range aircraft routinely patrolled the edges of U.S. and Canadian airspace probing NORAD defenses, but largely stopped after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

As for the current round of patrols, the bomber flights are being used as a “messaging tool,” Gortney said.
“Obviously it’s pretty clear that they’re doing that. So they’re flying in places… where they’ve never flown before.”

The flights are typically Bears – some capable of firing long-range cruise missiles – but no fighters as of yet, he said.

Gortney said despite the increased uptick in flights, the Russians are abiding by international aviation norms.

“We haven’t seen anything that crosses into the unprofessional,” Gortney said. “They’re talking and squawking like they should, they’re just doing more of it. “

Far better to “accidentally” shoot down AF1, since there is clearly not even ONE pilot of that aircraft who will bother to honor their very oath of office to the Constitution.

Orwellian_Dilemma

It seems the Russians are desperate for war. Of course, with a president as weak as ours, they have to ask themselves if the United States would even defend itself from direct attack.

justtoughtiwouldsay

Right cause it has nothing to do with out actions. This is just out of the blue unprovoked. OR! you’re not paying attention.

Orwellian_Dilemma

The Russians have been trying to conquer the world since Sixteenth Century. So, no. This latest round of Russian warmongering is not the fault of the United States.

YourEmpireStrikesOut

LMAO! The ONLY country that has ever actually tried to conquer the world is the damned USA, and we all know it.

Run along, Boris. Make sure your handlers pay you in dollars and not rubles.

“Out of the Blue” . . . you are “On a River in Egypt!” Russia has been ramping up air and naval operations for over the last year around the planet.

According to whom, CurtCon? Oh yeah, your masters in the Pentagon — the same folks who assured you that there were “WMDs” in Iraq.
You really enjoy being a stooge, don’t you?!

Hawkdriver1961

Like I said above, at the time of the 911 attacks (literally out of the blue) we had just gone into Somalia a few years earlier to feed starving Muslims dying under a Muslim warlord. Also we were in the middle of protecting Muslims in Serbia, Macedonia and Croatia from genocide. And of course we protecting, yes you guessed it, Muslims in Iraq from Hussein’s retribution with the no fly zones….Yes I can see your point that saving Muslims from themselves and others only breeds Muslim hatred of USA. The same logic that has fueled liberals/leftists for decades in the US and the West.

bugandco

Obama would do nothing except bask in martyrdom – the ultimate peacekeeper.

Curtis Conway

he got his medal.

wowreally

So us destabilizing the middle east and creating a breading ground for nut cases, spending 5billion funding the Ukrainian uprising, economic war with oil and the dollar, financial sanctions on members of their government, etc, etc, etc… has nothing to do with it right?

Careful there fella, some folks will wrap themselves up in the flag and label you an enemy combatant…

So America created Islam in the 7th Century? America also created the Sunni/Shia riff too? When they yell “Alluh akbar” and blow up innocent people, you immediately think, “it’s America’s fault”.

1095 Launch of the first Crusade. Wasn’t this about time? Talk about “turning the other cheek! It took 400 years for Christians to respond to Islamic aggression and conquest!

This was a military expedition by European Christians to regain the Holy Lands taken by the Muslim conquest of the Levant, which resulted in the re-capture of Jerusalem in 1099.

no

Wow, really? Islam was created by the US? Ukraine belongs to Russia? US drills and fracs for its own oil becoming the leading producer creating an oil surplus, driving down prices to consumers. Communist countries would never allow such freedom. Financial sanctions, for invading a sovereign nation, the Ukraine, wow, really? Funding the freedom fighters in the Ukraine is a bad thing, to a commie.

pej

Let the Russians spend and spend their dwindling rubles on military adventure. At the end of the day like the Soviet era they would go bankrupt. They don’t get a hint, they’re treading into a trap invading Ukraine ultimately consuming their oil money for expensive conquest. That’s what they experiencing in Crimea. The price of oil will remain low until this new Soviet version of Putin start collapsing. There is plan by Canada to export oil and gas to Europe and US probably would follow thereby grabbing some market share from Russia. Economic Warfare! The reality is Russia’s economy is largely dependent on OIL. When the oil income is gone they are done. Unlike South Korea, China, Japan and USA, whose manufacturing infrastructures are very strong. Have you seen Russian’s consumers goods around? Maybe some Ak47s and weaponry.

You need to update yourself on World Economics, you are very misinformed.

FedUpAndPi$$edOff

Not to disagree, but the finances of our own house aren’t particularly in order by any means. We’ve pretty much spent ourselves into oblivion.

Ted Brown

We have??
Our debt ratio isn’t even 100% of GDP and our trade deficit has been reduced along with a little of our debt, thanks to newly found reserves of oil
Japans is 200% of GDP and it is still #3 in the world economy and we still have the largest economy in the world and the most profitable. Now you have a good day, Chicken Little.

Mark Marquis

The “truth” is scary and gives them nightmares .

FedUpAndPi$$edOff

Agreed! Both of my comments were removed. Comments directed toward truth are apparently tossed. It’d be nice to have at least some free speech nowadays especially on the comments section of an internet article!!

rick

The blog I started about this on Discuss has been closed! It’s still readable but no more posts. I’m finding everywhere is being heavily moderated now except Weasel Zippers……..where are you posting now?

SWDC

The Dept of Censorship is working over time and the USA is noticing because the comments being subsequently and systematically removed are not off topic, not offensive, not laden with curse words, and or are not personal attacks.

The USA is not stupid and nether is the US Military.

Here let me repeat the very most important part
The USA is not stupid and neither is the US Military.

In addition to being banned and heavy moderation, there are a bunch of people who down vote 100’s of times……..this whole blogging thing is going to the dogs fast…….soon only expressions of love and admiration for our leaders will be allowed……

That is why Disqus stopped showing down votes.

Rick too check it out

rick

Moderators are able to do as they please even to the extent of “editing” our posts. I had that happen a couple days ago. They removed an entire sentence from my post and when I put it back they removed it again…..so I worded it differently and they removed the entire post…..ABC News.

I had all of my comments deleted from a particular site, whose side I was on, and trying to advocate for (past tense, due to their treatment of free speech.) The comments were mild, and not offensive, as far as I could determine.

SWDC

WOW rewriting other people’s posts is 1984 and Stasi.

rick

There was no vulgarity, no insults, a simple factual post. It was a story on abortion where someone had posted that a fetus is not a baby. I posted the definition of the word “fetus” directly from Merriam Webster………that was what ABC would not allow, the one sentence definition citing a fetus is specifically a human baby……….NOW how 1984 is that!

John (magnum)

They can’t handle TRUTH !

rick

This all started when disqus did away with down votes……..that’s when I had to go private……trolls following and down voting every comment all the time.

John (magnum)

Ditto that

Went private when the leftists started following and messing with my comments !

rick

They are now able to down vote comments off the page even with hundreds of up votes. Yesterday I saw a post with 285 up votes downvoted off the page to where a post with 1 up vote was above it.

PUREHELIX

They have taken us all down

Time to start our own internet sans government intervention.

no

What started when disqus did away with down votes. I do not understand. I have oldtimers disease.

Bring back the down votes.

rick

People becoming “followers” just to down vote all your posts. That’s why I (and many others) had to make our profiles “private.”

Of course the entire blog makes no sense now since it’s been pointlessly deleted….

Nice job deleting all the best comments Moderator……

I always have found attacking the enemies’ supply lines is best but call me oooollllllddddddd fashion but I have found the enemy has a very hard time without supplies ie money.

I have been thinking of what it would take to set up a Drudge-like web site. But, emphasizing the ability of people to freely comment on all and any news story. Copyright laws and a small budget are a challenge.

Why not replace/create new social media outlets after all current ones are only computer programs ripped off from others.

Did you read some are advocating and making legislation even to permit foreigners here in the USA illegally to vote a right given solely to citizens through out the world.

Imagine Iranians being given the right to vote in Saudi Arabian elections.

As 2016 approaches and the MSM are UBER busy picking and choosing candidates no one in the USA want I suspect things are going to get far worse.

750,000 Americans died needlessly in the US Civil War.

Ron W

Especially considering that the U.S. Supreme Court had kept slavery legal in 1857 (Dred Scott decision). Chief Justice Roger Taney’s majority opinion cited the right to keep and bear arms as a reason NOT to allow black people to be persons under the Constitution lest “they be able to go armed everywhere they went”….a pro-slavery attitude which is prevalent among our ruling elite class to this day.

Inagreement1776

Are you still stuck on Slavery? Dude, get over it and move on.

SWDC

More concerned over UBER open USA borders during times of war no less than other people’s border disputes which are between peoples who speak the exact same language as one another.

Ron W

If “during times of war” is defined by the Constitution, we haven’t had such a time since 1941-1945 when there was a Congressional Declaration of War against the governments of Japan and Germany which ended with their respective unconditional surrenders. But Article IV, Section 4 is to be in effect at all times. But without an official “during times of war” it seems that the refusal to “protect the States against invasion” may be done with impunity from “treason” as defined in Article III, Section 3.

SWDC

911 and Islam

Ron W

“Islam”? No enemy was ever named, just a tactic, “the war on terror” and according to the Patriot Act, that can be anyone. For a non-state enemy, instead of a Declaration of War against a government or nation, the Constitution specifies, that Congress grant a ” Letter of Marquee and Reprisal”. And why were our borders left open and immigration wasn’t suspended from all Islamic countries from whence come jihadists ? And how did the 911 hi jackets get here…oh they were allowed enter and stay… a policy which was continued and still continues to this day…” None dare call it treason”.

Boy, do you need to get your head out buddy. It is not at all like you think. Do you actually think Canada and the United States can ship enough oil or LNG to Europe to satisfy what Russia can with its pipelines which go directly into Europe. Aint gonna happen my friend.

The main stream media you buy into are no more than mouth pieces for our government, and it wants you to believe its line of BS.

America is about a half step away from economic destruction an Russia is the least of our worries. Our government is more worried about the dollar and the BRICS nations setting up their own trading platform, leaving the Petro dollar to suffer its slow death.

No amount of whinig and stomping feet will stop the collapse. Our supposed brilliant politicians are not as bright as we thought, because the house of cards they have built is about to come crashing down around OUR HEADS !!!

tony

But when we invade a sovereign nation, that’s ok ?

Orwellian_Dilemma

When that sovereign nation hosts people who blow up our office buildings with airplanes we have every right to invade.

Russia is invading merely to steal land and enslave people. That’s not at all the same thing.

I reckon Subway let you out of work early, eh?

Is Putin still paying you with vodka and potatoes? Because you conjure up a lot of nonsense. And that tells me: You’re working for the Russians. How do I know? Because you don’t speak logic or actuality in your posts.

Good riddance. But dont be too proud of that, they are running from this horrible administration.

Yes, according to RT news…. LOL!

Ted Brown

Not to mention the millions who risk everything coming here without a passport nor money, or food.
MILLIONS more than what you claim is leaving, idiotic imbeciled one brain celled propagandick.

Doa74656

Yeah because those millions of illegals REALLY have Americas best interests at heart and aren’t here for the free candy

Joe

Millions who risked everything coming here really? more like millions of invaders. Right now as it stands,America has 18 million illegal alien criminals in this country,who do not want to learn english,assimilate or become citizens. Take your bullshit propaganda somewhere else you leftist scumbag. Oh and if Cuba is such a great country why are Cubans fleeing to come here then?

I hate liberals,they should be forced to house,feed and clothe illegal aliens with their own money. I want to know what the environmental impact report of 18 million illegals is and what damage they’re doing. Why aren’t the green eco-communist terrorists saying anything about all the trash being strewn across the border by illegals? The greenies sure did make a mess during that protest in New York looking like a bunch of idiots that they are.

Joe

Liberals are so fuc-ing stupid,they don’t realize that if half of the country who are American born and bred end up leaving & renouncing their citizenship that’s a lot of lost tax revenue,because you know illegal aliens won’t ever become citizens or pay taxes. I’ve never seen such a stupid group of people with backwards thinking in my life (liberals) who wants to destroy their very own first world country,and transform into a Third World hellhole. I don’t get it & thats why liberalism is a mental disorder. Liberals are the enemy.

Not since 2008

Well maybe those “sovereign” nations shouldn’t launch acts of war against us and they won’t get attacked, huh???

They dont read. If they did they would know what communist countries do to thier citizens. They would know their is a fine delicate between our freedoms and communism. If they did they would learn how Castro arrests people on the streets and puts them in hole never to be heard from again because they do not agree with certain government policies.

he didn’t say that idiot.

Gimp

The eastern Ukraine voted 98% to rejoin Russia you fool. Our boarders are over here not in the middle east get a grip. Iraq never had mwds. the afghan people are worst off now. The poppy fields that fund these so called terrorist organizations are growing like mad and flooding our city streets shall I go on. The depleted uranium rounds we have scattered across the middle east has taken its toll on birth defects. I love my country but hate its government. You know a politician is lying when you see there mouths moving.

The question for this administration is will they mount a defense for Kansas City when approached by enemy from both the East and the West?

There was a little thing called a regime change in the Ukraine your logic is dumfound

MarioRom

Gimp. You okay? Looks like you drank a little too much ObamaKoolAid. Eastern Ukraine is still Ukraine. Boarders is what Obama is letting in across our borders willy nilly. Look up George Sada, Iraqi Air Force General who moved the WMD’s to Syria.The Afghans will never have anything. Most have never travelled more then 8 miles from their homes. Guys like you have problems when druggies are locked up. Don’t eat depleted uranium chips – that’s like in the US where lead was removed from paint because a certain group eats paint chips.Politicians do lie, especially those on the left and their willing accomplices in the media which is why Brian Williams was suspended but nobody touches Hillary Rotten Clinton.

Ron W

So “what does it matter?!”

Chaunceywg

“What difference does it make”

Yes, I do think drug laws should be up to the States. And Ukraine broke apart once there president was over thrown by a minority group. D.U. is nothing like lead do some research before you comment on such matters. Don’t simply write on emotions like most people with no facts behind a word they say.

In the real world, not so much.

Libby Rell Gruber

On January 28, 2011 United States Central Command (CENTCOM) declassified information regarding weapons of mass destruction (WMD) found in Iraq after the war. This information was obtained under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request and the report received stated that 4,251 various types of CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) weapons were found by multinational forces after the war. The report stated this number was not an official count as CENTCOM does not receive information from other government agencies. It is also possible additional weapons were found after the requested report as the information was dated December 2008 and (from the report) it appears chemical weapons were still being found in Iraq as late as October of that year

Because the middle east was sooooo stable. Iranian Embassies, Airline hijacking, Beirut, Kuwait, Somalia WTC 1, Kenya, Tanzania, Cole, WTC2 just to rattle off a few.

Think about THIS…. .

Can a good Muslim be a good American or Canadian?

This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia

for 20 years. The following is his reply:

Theologically – no. … Because his allegiance is to Allah.

Religiously – no.. . .. Because no other religion is accepted by His

Allah except Islam … (Quran, 2:256) (Koran)

scripturally – no. .. .. Because his allegiance is to the five

Pillars of Islam and the Quran.

Geographically – no .. Because his allegiance is to Mecca, to which

he turns in prayer five times a day..

Socially – no. . . Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to

make friends with Christians or Jews …

Politically – no… Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual leaders),

who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America, the great Satan.

Domestically – no. .. . Because he is instructed to marry four Women

and beat his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 )

Intellectually – no… Because he cannot accept the American

Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes

the Bible to be corrupt.

Philosophically – no. . . Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran does not

wish, it’s still the truth. You had better believe it. The more who understand

this, the better it will be for our countries and our future.

The religious war is bigger than we know or understand.

Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within.

Joe

You can pin the blame squarely on Bill Clinton for failing to get Bin Laden when he had the chance. Except he was getting a BJ in the White House by Monica Lewinsky instead of doing his job. Just like Obongo,except he goes on vacation every other week at our expense. It’s probably a good thing that Bill Clinton was not removed from office because Al Gore would’ve been president and he’s worse!

Formulakid

Dude, seriously Bin laden penetrated the most fortified air space in world history? where was our trillion dollar air defense that day?

91B4S

Most fortified?!?!? Please, North Korean, Israel and many other Countries have many more deployed air defenses than the US…especially pre 911. We may have the most advanced but certainly not the “most fortified”. You can look it up or continue to make it up.

MuchTooLearnUSH .

Anyone who thinks they didn’t have ‘help’ by traitors within (9/11), is a fool…

Little Cheese

Gimp – silly us, how could we ever think Bin Laden had anything to do with this. It was the Jews, right?? I’m thinking of a word that rhymes with basshole for you.

Formula – quick clarification. Bin Laden (I almost said Obama…) didn’t penetrate. His little guys were swimming around inside, sans condom. We let them in the same way Ms. Lewinsky let Clinton’s cigar inside, openly and willingly.

Dr. Truth

Real easy one, 911 = INSIDE JOB!

That’s what I said in one of my earlier posts. Bush failed on 9/11 & the government failed to protect the country that day. I agree you won’t hear any argument from me.

No it’s “literally” treason. Obama and his cronys have provided arms to Al Qaeda, ISIS, and is now negotiating to help Iran acquire nukes….

Article 3 Section 3 of the Constitution specifically defines treason as “rendering aid and comfort to a sworn enemy.” All 3 of those are sworn enemies and have all sworn to destroy America.

The amount that was spent/wasn’t spent on the Ukrainian uprising (against a Russian puppet Yanukovich) is irrelevant. They are a sovereign country and Russian forces are fighting there – period. What would be situation if NATO forces were fighting on Russian soil trying to carve off a separatist piece of mother Russia? In short, the city you are safely typing from would probably be a smoking radioactive crater.

Dr. Truth

A 50 billion $, George Soro’s extravaganza, COUP is “irrelevant?”

Correct. it is irrelevant in regards to justifying an INVASION by Russia.

Sort of hard to do when Hussein Obama has gutted our Military. Cut the F-22, C-17, Pacific Missile Defense, European Missile Defense and severely cut back our Navy, Army, Marines and Air Force. Hussein is leaving the USA open for attack, which is exactly what he wants.

My guess is no. He would not defend this country after attack. He would say we deserved it.

I suspect it wouldn’t take much provocation for Obama to fold and give Alaska back to the Ruskies (it’s a red state anyway). I’m sure he’d like to give California back to Mexico, but it’s such a reliable source of electoral votes for the Democrats that he knows better. Maybe Arizona.

Answer: Puerto Rico
Was given Independence from Spain before the Spanish – American War and the U.S. outright took over that nation months after the war..

Orwellian_Dilemma

Yeah, um, OK. The fact that you have to come up with lame 19th century examples proves the weakness of your argument.

Remember, Russia is currently (as in today) invading numerous neighbors solely to steal land and enslave peoples.

Hawkdriver1961

If it’s any consolation they can have it back…As a matter of fact they have had a few votes on statehood and independence. They still want to suckle from the teat of the US no matter how we try to push them away…

Hawkdriver1961

Wow! You remind me of the old days of the cold war and how Reagan was going to push the button, the USA was the root of all evil in the world and then you all performing a good Die In with fake blood on the steps of the congress building, while holding signs that said “You Can’t Hug With Nuclear Arms!”. Thanks for the remark, brought back fond memories of my youth…

banderlogtorpedo

Obama will send a token force to make believe he gave a hoot and then send Psaki out to tell us he is going to degrade and destroy the invading Russo/Chinese forces.

If I were a Russian and wanted world domination. I would groom an American President years ago who would agree not to reply to a Russian nuclear attack. As this would be truly the only way to destroy America.

Sipstate

TAG

Putin enjoys massive political popularity at home, if the news is to be believed. This kind of nationalism in response to belligerence amongst other nations has in the past led to both World Wars.
Obama appears as a Nelly/sissy to Putin. He despises him deeply and yes, I believe Putin would like a war since he can’t have a fist fight.

Robert

Whose military has crossed borders in Europe? Answer that question and we’ll have the answer about who is the belligerent party. Hint: it isn’t NATO.

Armed Resistance

Russia is desperate for war? Oh yeah, they invaded Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and they’re funding ISIS and Al Queda in Syria, and they spent $5B to stage a coup and elect a puppet government in Ukraine.

Oh wait, that’s the US. My bad.

Orwellian_Dilemma

They’ve invaded Ukraine, Georgia, Chechnya solely to steal land and enslave people. Of course, it’s what Russians have always done.

Bob

Eeehm Chechnya is part of Russia. They had a rebellion, but it is part of Russia. Georgia, another fact, the OECD has unilaterally blamed Georgia for the attacks and Russia retaliated. The best part of all is that among the volunteers in Eastern Ukraine (ie on behalf of Russia) are Chechen. If you google images of Grozny today you would be surprised what it looks like. Just do it for fun sake.

Robert

It is amazing people can’t look at a map of Russia and wonder why it is so disproportionately large compared to the rest of the nations of Europe. Yet those same idiots when shown the map will believe a country the size of the US and Canada combined could be the historical victim. …AND Russia invaded Afghanistan too which people seem to forget. Actually everything Russia owns EAST of about Urals was gained through conquest. Unfortunately it happened before World War 2 which might as well be ancient history for most folks these days. Russian history is complex and lazy minds would rather just not go there and instead would just prefer to hold on to lazy fables about who the aggressors of history really are and ignore the history of Russia’s inexorable aggression that extends back further than the USA has even been a country.

Hardly. I am a life long conservative and libertarian constitutionalist. I do however have the ability to use reason and critical thinking skills when it comes to world affairs.

You can go on sucking up the propaganda right through the collapse with the rest of brain-dead America. Our country has been overthrown by a one-party fascist government. By the sounds of the way you like to label people, you probably work for them as a troll.

Inagreement1776

Maybe you are those thimgs you claim to be; however, i am trying to reconcile your anti-American statements against what you label yourself as. U.S. military action provides for the carefree Disneyland of a lifestyle we lead. You think you will find Disneyland in any of the countries you mention? I stand behind and with fellow patriots and my family. I care they eat first. We lost that solidarity for the adolescent fantasy Lennon sings about on Imagination. Folks need to grow up and accept that is not reality and not human nature. Hope, change and imagination are all by products of smoking that wacky tabaccy. Put the pipe down and be an adult. God, Honor and Duty built this nation, not bull you and the rest of these hippies are sellin’.

Gimp

I guess anti American is quoting the constitution and questioning our government.

Dr. Truth

Our Constitution died years ago. Just sit down long enough to read our first 10 amendments, commonly referred to as The Bill of Rights, then ask yourself, is this Constitution NOT dead?

Ron W

Yes, Gimp, Those we’ve elected to administrate our government are our EMPLOYEES who are UNDER our delegated powers in the Constitution. Delegated powers always come DOWN from the GREATER to the LESSER:
“It would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights. Confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism. Free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence. It is jealousy and not confidence which prescribes limited constitutions, to bind down those whom we are obliged to trust with power. Our Constitution has accordingly fixed the limits to which, and no further, our confidence may go… In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” –Thomas Jefferson: Draft, Kentucky Res., 1798.

Dr. Truth

Please consider the possibility……..you have been successfully BRAINWASHED!

I’ll tell you what folkes, these antiAmericans are cut from the same cloth those in the American Revolution who were against an independent America and Bowes down to the red coats. let’s ship them to Europe and revoke their citizenship.

Hawkdriver1961

I wish I had such a cush job. Again at the time of the 911 attacks we had just gone into Somalia a few years earlier to feed starving Muslims dying under a Muslim warlord. Also we were in the middle of protecting Muslims in Serbia, Macedonia and Croatia from genocide. And of course we protecting, yes you guessed it, Muslims in Iraq from Hussein’s retribution with the no fly zones. Today you have murderous cults like the Taliban, Al Queda and now ISIS that are spreading and to deny that is dangerously ignirant. It’s not that we went to where these groups are that was the problem it is not letting us finish the job and languishing under rules of engagement that favored the enemy. Jefferson sent our forces to Tripoli to take out the Pirates terrorizing that part of the world and threatening trade. Taking out these groups is just as relevant today as the Muslim Barbary Coast Pirates of Thomas Jefferson’s day. They were terrorists. As for Putin, he wants the former Soviet Union back and more than that, he wants the Ukrain’s resources. It is as simple as that. Btw we also have a treaty with the Ukrain in defending their borders. I do agree there is hardly any difference between parties now and that is going to cause big problems…

Dr. Truth

What Jefferson did to the pirates in his day cannot even conceivably be anything close to what Nato/US/Friends have been doing across the planet for decades! The Constitution requires acts of war to originate only in the Congress which in fact has NOT been done since FDR & WWII. Our, existential, General President WASHINGTON knew & stated clearly that the USA should AVOID foreign entanglements. Too bad the now empire failed to head!

Ron W

You’re correct Dr. Truth! Here’s the enumerated DELEGATED POWER vested in Congress. The Letter of Marque and Reprisal would apply to non-state enemies:

To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; –Article I, Section 8:11
The U.S. Government may do NOTHING without delegated powers according to the plain wording of the 10th Amendment!! Otherwise we’re allowing a rogue and criminal element to operate in our own government.

Joe

You’re wrong on the fascist part. The one party that has taken over are the Democrat communists not fascists. The Republicans are fascists,Democrats are communists. I’m a constitutional conservative & our country is on the verge of being destroyed by the two-party scam.

Well said brother

Ron W

Yes Gimp, Armed Resistance is right on!

Ron W

Armed Resistance,

You sound like one of the radical American Revolutionaries:

“The duty of a patriot is to protect his country from its government.”–Thomas Paine (1737-1809)
It seems now that instead of CONSERVING the Constitution, modern “conservatives” want to conserve the power of our presidential warlords, something that has general bi-partisan approval whereby our own country is allowed to be invaded while our military is sent to countries which cannot attack us UNLESS their jihadist foot soldiers were and are allowed to enter and stay. That’s how the Saudi 9-11 hi-jackers were able to perpetrate their deed!!

Armed Resistance

The Saudi 9/11 hijackers? Oh yeah, that’s right- among all of the dust and rubble and microscopic bone fragments there were in-tact passports implicating those rascals! Hey, that seems familiar- didn’t the Charlie Hebdo killers leave their ID’s in the getaway car too? What a coincidence!

Our founders warned of no foreign entanglements yet we make it our business to drone everybody and their brother to protect “freedom” (or the U.S. dollar).

WilliamWallace

He sounds like a real American to me, and I consider myself to the right of every Republican in Congress.

Hawkdriver1961

Well in today’s congress, that ain’t saying much. Using an overly simple statement that implies that America is the root of all the world’s ills is not intellectually honest to say the least. His statement is right in line with the simple slogans and clichéd remarks of the left, while giving a free pass to a tyrant poised to plunge that part of the world into all out war and not a disparaging word of the terrorists that infest the region and kill with increasing impunity as we draw down. Sorry, I’m not buying it…He sounds like your typical Berkley student to me…

MuchTooLearnUSH .

Babylon was and is “a golden cup” in the hands of the LORD!

WilliamWallace

The tyrant who is plunging America into a total war with Russia is Barak Hussein Obama and his henchwomen Vicky Nuland and Susan Rice. Why are you giving a free pass to a U.S. State Dept and a White House Administration that funded and organized an illegal coup of a democratically elected government in Ukraine? What do you think the United States reaction would be if China organized and funded a coup of Canada’s democratically elected government?

superflex

You sound like a Bankster/MIC lackey to me.

Dr. Truth

Don’t you know, thinking is not allowed!

Actually the Russians did invade Afghanistan.

That was the USSR …and where did it get them? A question you might ask yourself is where will all our invasions eventually get us.

Robert

All the same players are still running the place. It was just a bankruptcy reorganization and a name change. What is amazing is that all they have to do if change hats and the name of their organization and it fools most of the people.

Joe

We all need to focus and realize that Saudi Arabia is the real enemy here. Not Afghanistan,it’s just trash whole country Libya? meh. I blame Reagan for not avenging those marines that died in Beirut when he was president. Vladimir Putin and Bashir Assad aren’t our enemies. Obama and the liberals on the domestic side here in America,are America’s enemies. Michael Savage was right when he said liberals are the enemy within.

Jack Coyote

They did invade Afghanistan and got their butts kicked. They also invaded Czechoslovakia, Georgia, Ukraine, put offensive missiles in Cuba. They also set up an iron curtain in Poland, Hungary, Albania, east germany, the Baltics.

Anthony Lysenko

I enjoy right wingers capitulating and finally coming out for what they are – anti-American. Now kneel and kiss Putin’s ring. Lolbertarian.

I am pro America but anti this government. That makes me a Patriot, period. Free Markets, and free people never go out of style no matter how you neocons spin it. You can cower under the illusion that terrorists are going to bomb you while you check your iPhone while watching dancing with the stars, but the majority of the terrorists are in Washington and will gladly leave you alone so long you tow the propaganda line and continue to be a Ponzi debt-slave for them.

And yes, I admire Putin 100x more than Obama, Lindsay Graham and your boy McCain and all of the other neocons you support.

Anthony Lysenko

Ron W

Armed Resistance, you and I are fellow “counter-revolutionaries” according to this quote:

“Patriots are not revolutionaries trying to overthrow government. Patriots are counter-revolutionaries trying to prevent government from overthrowing the U.S. Constitution.”–Author unknown

“And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe—the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God. We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of THAT FIRST REVOLUTION.” –John F. Kennedy, Jan 20, 1961

No. you were still correct. Russia did invade Afghanistan in the 80’s and Chechnya in 1999, in which about 25,000 to 50,000 Chechens died and about 11,000 Russians died.

Armed Resistance

That’s correct. My bad. Thank you for reminding me. I do remember now because that’s when Osama Bin Laden “officially” was working for the CIA…

Hawkdriver1961

I have often thought the same thing and I think if we were attacked with nuclear weapons, this president would not retaliate. That is a scary and dangerous circumstance, because if we think it, you can bet our enemies are thinking the same thing.

Inagreement1776

Does anyone recall the 2012 debate remark, “…the 1980s called, and they want thier foreign policy back!” What idiots did not consider, is that Romney was getting National Security briefings at that point, he was speaking based upon fact.

Except for all those guys on the other end of the Russian radio… or the signature of the missile, or the signature of the F22 with the missile doors open…

Robert

The problem isn’t the Tu-95 bear. It is the bear’s belly – full of HYPERSONIC cruise missiles with thermonuclear warheads that can be launched far from our shores. Those missiles have like a 2000 mile range which means the Bear will have already launched its cargo long before it enters our airspace. Launched long before the raptors are even in range (if things do go hot). Good luck intercepting them if they are launched. If those bears can get within 200 miles of our coastline nukes could be raining down us in less than 10 minutes with very low chance of successful interceptions.

onguard101

That old ancient plane is about the only thing they can afford to fly regularly. But, it may be enough to send Obama back under the bed.

Tu-95 Bears have been flying off our coast since I was in a patrol squadron, 1965-69. Nothing we don’t do too. Move along folks, nothing to see here.

True. but considering the recent return of the Soviet/Russian possible spy ship CCB-175 docked in Havana last month after years of nothing from the Soviet/Russians, and the more recent reports of warships off Sweden, Scotland, and Georgia (as in Jimmy Carter Georgia) makes coincidence seem unlikely. Something more than routine seems to be amiss.

Tyrantsbleedtoo

Putin knows that we are as vulnerable as we will ever be since dictator hussein is in power. The Bears are a distraction so Acula-class subs can clandestinely position themselves right up against our continental shelf. Then the real fireworks begin.

Nah. Let’s do a femi-nazi bomb, so Russia will be reduced to women trying to act like perverted, abusive, egotistical men, while sporting their wallet chains.

Surrender is Obama’s middle name and Putin knows it. We’d give them Alaska and Hawaii as payment not to bomb us.

Moral equivalency, while fun as a parlor game, is as dangerous as it is immoral.

Poor Russia. Still flying those things because not even Bangladesh wants to buy their antiquated bombers

chicodon

They know that time is running out. They have only a 1-1/2 year window to get done what they want to do. China knows this as well. Obama will be so hated by 2016 for his domestic policies that a real right wing government is a strong possibility.

JoetheFilmmaker

52% of America is about to get the pill promised them, as Obama continues to dismantle our military and weaponry. The US can’t even get a man into space. Russia has checkmate on the US, and Obama put us in this position.

And if Russia leveled Washington DC, they’d be liberating the American people. Why would they bother when Obama, McConnell, and Boehner are already destroying America for them.

We don’t stand a chance against Russia.

onguard101

The real question, if Putin orders a preempted strike would the Russian military comply?……MAD is still in place.

I think Obama is trying to provoke an attack from Russia or ISIS. He hates America and an attack on the U.S. would just finish his job early. I think he’s wondering whats taking ISIS so long to cross the Southern border.

because its not Brian Williams reporting

MrSmithInDC

These are the guys that tell Brian Williams what to say.

thor

hmmm. i guess they didn’t fire the whole crew then

MrSmithInDC

No. They didn’t.

Of course it does look like an F-22 escorted a Bear back in 2011.

thor

so its the file photos that cause you to doubt Russia has stepped up flights near the US?

MrSmithInDC

That is part of it.

Why not video an intercept. Cameras broke?

These days “trust but verify” works both ways.

Unless you’re a mindless sheep.

thor

I agree with trust but verify and I have not verified anything in this story which is why I asked the question, “is it the file photos?” I thought perhaps you have some insight other than the file date on the photo, if so please share.

MrSmithInDC

Since this story cannot be verified by other sources or media, and given the history of lies by this administration and others, this story must be false until proven true.

thor

usni has placed my response on hold

thor

you tried to verify it?

Old Crow

Nature teaches us that a dust up between a meddlesome chimp and an enraged bear the outcome is never in doubt.

Caldera

American armchair general chest pounding is hilarious. The B-52 designed in the 50’s and slated to continue service for another 30 years. The Bear is a nuclear bomb truck with one purpose only. Cruise missiles with nuclear warheads. The F-22 is alright but it’s Russian counterpart SU-35 and PAK T-50 4++ gen blows the competition away.

Jersey_Prophet

Been reading Russia Today a little too much. The Russkie fighters are untested in any battle.

Caldera

Let’s not find out. Their doctrine, because they are a smaller military, is to use nuclear weapons.

Jersey_Prophet

I was talking about fighters.

Sure…let’s let them walk all over sovereign countries like Ukraine followed by Estonia, Latvia, Poland. They can always use the same argument, “We’re protecting our native Russian speaking residents of these countries.” Of course, they never explain in WHAT danger their Russians are inside these countries.

Are you actually supporting naked unprovoked aggression?

Vuil

Actually the Russians could do a public service and nuke Washington. There would be no consequences.

Either Obama is killed and America would rejoice or if he was out of town Obama would threaten the Russians and declare that if they did it again there would be trouble.

notalib

Putin knows there is a weak-kneed spineless woosey in the White House. And he knows the liberals/Democrats support him. They call Obama and administration out–Obama caves. Think of the visuals. Putin hunting, Obama riding a girls bicycle with a whimpy helmet. He, Obama, is like a limp noodle. Putin looks like a strong leader.

We have a loser in the White House and liberals/Democrats support and would give our country away. They would destroy our great country.

When you vote–think of your self preservation if you don’t think of our country. Obama and liberal/Democrats aren’t the answer.

Bearfighter

Maybe this is what Obama whispered to Putin, we’ll take down America and you get half and I get half.

Sold America

They are testing the waters. With a spineless coward in office russia will continue to do what they want to do. There was a time when we weren’t so divided, now our own government has made sure we are so divided, I am surprised there hasn’t been a call for building the russian’s a runway, by some liberal whack job.

MrSmithInDC

What does Russia want to do?

Jessica

Who knows they are flying bombers to test something, why would you test a bomber! dahhh…..

MrSmithInDC

What are they testing?

Jessica

Have you been Gruberized?

MrSmithInDC

Just asking.

Grubers don’t ask. They just believe what they are told.

Jessica

Putin invaded Ukraine, who knows what’s next.

MrSmithInDC

No he didn’t. The United States did on February 22, 2014.

Jessica

So your saying America ousted President Viktor Yanukovych?

MrSmithInDC

It’s not just me.

You need to learn what is really going on in Ukraine. And not from Brian Williams or his peers.

Jessica

Okay Mr. Smith enjoy your Global warming. Gruberhead!

MrSmithInDC

I don’t believe in Global warming.

Jessica

The only thing the wacko left is worried about is Global warming and that’s been proven to be the biggest hoax ever played on mankind.

Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:

And thou shalt say, I will go
up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest,
that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having
neither bars nor gates,

To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

Ezekiel 38:10-12

fake like fake

The only way to ensure world lasting peace is by making Washington a radioactive land.

AnimalMother

shoot’m down, that might stop them from crossing into our border…..oh wait, we have no borders anymore

Ron W

Right AnimalMother, the last several globalist administrations have presided over open borders. While they send our military abroad, they refuse one of their few Constitutional duties to “protect the States against Invasion” (Article IV, Section 4) which constitutes giving aid and comfort to…enemies which is defined as treason in Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution. They claim our military is sent abroad to “protect our freedoms”, yet the only obvious attack on the Bill of Rights comes from Washington D.C., i.e., the Patriot Act, DHS, NDAA, unconstitutional executive orders from Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama.

Give it some time. The white house will likely have us doing free aerial refuelling of these bombers.

Pat Barker

Sure glad Susan Rice is in control of firing our missiles

Prelusive007

Our Commandeer in Chief, aka “the sociopathic liar” Barack Obama is probably bent over on his prayer rug right now begging the child molester “muhammad” to guide him…….. while Biden kneels behind Barack asking him to reach around and ‘guide him’. That’s how left wingers roll.

jonnyninja

It’s quite telling to watch how the Russians, under the same president, act now as opposed to when Dubya was the US president. Back then, it was like “Hey Vladimir, I’m going to put a missile shield in Europe. I’m not asking for permission, I’m telling you the way it is.” Our relations with Russia were 1,000 times better.

Now, Obama can’t get Putin’s nuts off his chin long enough to tell or ask him anything, and Putin just gets bolder every day. We may as well have Bruce Jenner as our president…or my little pony…or a dirty sock.

I’m all for diplomacy, but not at ANY cost. This is just embarrassing.

Ebama Obola

Putin doesn’t wear mom jeans like the messiah.

jonnyninja

No, he doesn’t.. He swims with sharks, wrestles tigers, and shoots guns.

Meanwhile, our president can’t swim, wrestles only with his emotions, and has only shot a gun once for a photo op.

anyway the ruskies and the chicoms are now bedfellows so if we tangle with one we tangle with the other. golly sounds like another cold war! praying it doesn’t go hot and meanwhile we continue to dismantle our military. Yep that’ll show them not to mess with us! (sarcasm)

Fry The Brain

That’s one big beast of a bomber. Sort of intimidating. I like Russia. Already got my pirated version of Rosetta stone. Once I finish learning Mandarin, I think I’ll learn Russian. But not after Spanish. I truly respect world leaders who show backbone. Say what you will about Putin, but he has more respect from me, and many Americans, than our own POTUS (Piece.Of.Turd.Under.Shit) For the time being. This is what you get for voting Democrap.

Oh how cute look at the kids playing charades. I call utter BS on this story’s whole point and the seriousness of the whole situation. There’s two wolves and a sheep having dinner. Who are the sheep you wonder?

what do you believe the point of the story is?

MR. TRUTH

A democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner.
Liberty is, on the other hand, a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. – Benjamin Franklin

Every hour the Russians put on those engines increases the probability of them not flying. They simply don’t make them anymore and they are continually canalizing other Tu95 to keep others flying

MR. TRUTH

WHO IS STILL BLIND ENOUGH OR NAIVE ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ELECTION IN 2016??? … Are you kidding me? .. OBAMA WILL DECLARE MARTIAL LAW LONG BEFORE THEN!!! …. Is Obama Arming the DHS like an Army for Nothing? .. Has he Fired over 250 Patriotic Military Commanders for Nothing? .. Has he gathered Thousands of Foreign troops, Weapons, Ammo and Tanks in America for Nothing? .. Has he purchased almost 2 BILLION rounds of Hollow Point Ammunition for Nothing? .. Has he activated almost 400 FEMA Concentration Camps across America for Nothing? .. Has he signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which allows him to arrest Americans without trial for Nothing? .. Has he appointed Radical Black Racist Anti-Americans to Top Key posts (Attorney General, New head of DHS, etc) for Nothing? .. I could go on all day with the preparations he has made to subdue and control all Americans when he declares Martial Law.

We are entering the very End Days spoken of in the Bible. I believe that Obama is Satanically Empowered and Satanically Protected. …. Why else would our Military, Secret Service, CIA, etc., stand passively by and knowingly allow him to totally destroy our Nation?

GET READY PATRIOTS!! GATHER FOOD AND FIND A REMOTE PLACE TO HUNKER DOWN WITH YOUR FAMILY!!

tingman

Good, we need the training. It will make it harder for Obama to continue to gut the military in an ever more dangerous world we did not create.

MR. TRUTH

IN JUST 6 YEARS OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS HAVE:+ Destroyed our national sovereignty+ Destroyed healthcare+ Destroyed the sanctity of marriage+ Turned race relations back 100 years+ Quadrupled the number of people on food stamps+ Restarted the Cold War+ Turned our Military into a gay bath house+ Reverted the middle east back into the middle ages+ Turned the IRS and NSA into the KGB+ Doubled the national debt+ Infested America with Foreign Diseases

Joe Krozac

This is no different than the U.S. flying B-52’s (which were nuclear armed) on a regular basis near the borders of the old Soviet Union, ditto for U.S. Navy submarines (also nuclear capable) sailing in international waters right up to the edge of Soviet controlled territories. It didn’t mean the U.S. was “desperate for war” or seeking to be provocative, it was force projection, a not-so-subtle reminder to Moscow that the U.S. was capable of launching an attack upon them at any time, just as they’re doing now.

Putin is not going to go to war over the Crimea. The Baltic States? Maybe.

thor

much along the lines of my thinking…Putin is just saber rattling there is no benefit to engage the USA with MAD as a deterrent, and a conventional war they would lose against us in my opinion

maineman11111

if ww3 happens, if you saw the hostage burned to death by ISIS.
each of us are going to die a similar horrible death

MR. TRUTH

OBAMA SAID: “The Arabic Call to Prayer is the most beautiful sound on Earth”, He also said: “Should the political winds shift in an ugly direction I will stand with the Muslims”, He also said: “The Future Must Not Belong To Those Who Slander The Prophet Of Islam!” .. and by his celebrating Ramadan in the White House, by his 2009 speech in Cairo praising Islam, by his failure to visit Israel while visiting Muslim countries in the region, by his call to go back to the pre 1967 war borders, by his giving the Muslim Brotherhood and their auxiliaries entrance to the White House, the State Department and even the military, by his deep bowing to the Saudi King while snubbing the Prime Minister of Israel – By each of these things Obama’s calling is plainly revealed. HE IS A FOUL EVIL SERVANT OF SATAN AND A FILTHY MUSLIM TRAITOR!

tbone51

I recall that it was sometime between 2004-06 when Ahmadinejad proclaimed that the Twelfth Imam was “in place”. Who do you think he was referring to? I have to admit, Obama is on course to completely destroying this nation.

MR. TRUTH

God allowed Obama to become ‘President’ in order to destroy America. We are doomed. Keep your eye on September 2015.

We have these things called lasers. They can disable boat and plane engines. Radar cannot track the lasers’ trajectories. To the pilots it would appear as an engine fire on their instrument panel. You catch my drift?

Pearz82

Interesting that the Bear bombers still have the communist (Soviet) red star insignia in these recent photos. I cannot imagine this is an accident. They really are trying to cobble the Soviet Union back together. I saw Putin more as a modern day czar but I guess once KGB always KGB.

That being the case, they ought to both volunteer for the first of the Russian nuclear suppositories that will be forthcoming if the yankee empire persists.

NORAD_lies

Bull! The USAF has been violating Russian airspace since forever. The lying NORAD clown is just rattling sabres in an effort to convince the American sheeple that it’s “necessary” to start WW3 if the USA can’t have its way in the Ukraine.

Time to fire up the DEWLine…..

organizedFSBcrime

Everyone who is everyone should realize that Putin is just a gangster head who happens to also be a head of state. If one looks into Putin’s history one will see the many instances of organized crime by the KGB then FSB which Putin was heavily involved in. His time as Deputy Mayor of St. Petersburg should be googled by everyone to see how he started his criminal career via political office. He stole millions of rubles from that city via a food scam and many thousands went hungry for a long time because of it.

Husker Du

Well, the american politicians are all saints. They would never take part in worshiping an owl while dressed in cloaks. They would never take bribes or kickbacks or do the biding of Israel. Nope, American politicians should be sainted, all of them. They are Satan’s heroes, err, God’s heroes.

(Nuclear) war is becoming more and more likely and that is the way the USG/NATO military establishment wants it. Russia is not a (conventional) threat to US or to Europe as its population (145m) and economy are small fractions of NATO’S. Russia has a long and easily penetrable border through which armies from the West have attacked it three times in the past two centuries – which is why Russia wants a neutral buffer between itself and the West. Russia’s only defense against NATO is tactical nuclear weapons – which NATO will try to take out at the start of hostilities which, in turn, means Russia must use ’em or lose ’em. There is no way that Russia’s leadership is going to allow the West to do to them what it did to Saddam Hussein.

This conflict began when US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland organized violent, PAID demonstrators to oust Ukraine’s legitimate elected President just because he (responsibly) accepted a better deal from Putin than the one he negotiated with Nuland and the EU. The ouster occurred while Putin was busy hosting the Olympics. Were it not for that deceitful conduct on the part of the Nuland, Crimea would still be part of Ukraine and Ukraine would be in much better shape to service its debt to European banks.

Putin was morally and legally correct to protect Crimea as Russia had a treaty with the legitimate government of Ukraine for a sea base – a treaty made null and void by the lawless ouster of Ukraine’s government, with Senator McCain egging on violent demonstrators. Putin is being vilified in every possible way now, just as Saddam Hussein was for years. Even psychiatrists are getting in on it by labeling Putin an Asberger baby.

It is time to stock up on basic necessities, including potassium iodide. The West will ‘win’ but millions will die. Good luck to the innocent.

Russians are merely flexing their muscle in response to the borderline confrontational behavior of the 2-3%ers, Yogi Bear and Nellie of the EU and the USA, for their attempts to destabilize the region. Putin knows how to deal with overcompensating 2-3%ers. Yogi Bear and Nellie respond in typical borderline confrontational/passive-aggressive behavior of sociopathic 2-3%ers.

Come on guys, give me a break, the Bear is propeller. A P51 Mustang could take them down. The Tu 160 or even the TU 22M would be more challenging.

cowboybob

Least we forget, the Russia-China alliance – the major, game-changing Eurasian story of the 2010s.
Just in case the “pivoting to Asia” gang starts harboring funny ideas about the Middle Kingdom as well, China is massively investing in bouncing lasers off satellites; satellite-hitting missiles; silent submarines that surface beside US aircraft carriers without detection; and a made in China anti-missile missile that can hit a reentering satellite moving faster than any ICBM.
In a nutshell; Beijing believes that the US surface fleet is obsolete – and undefendable. And needless to add, all of these Chinese modernizing developments are proceeding way faster than anything in the US. Hear that Senator McCain. We need more money in the budget.

trampletheweakhurdlethedead

Well, if you take into consideration the global economy is near collapse, that our queen Obama has increased US debt by 70%, to over 18 TRILLION USD in just 6 years, and at the end of his reign US debt will exceed 22 TRILLION USD, that our unfunded liabilities are now over 300 TRILLION USD, what do you expect is going to happen? The global economy is estimated to be 50 TRILLION USD, so again I ask what do you think is going to occur in the near future?

So flank every one of these bombers with about twenty fighters every time they show up. And, we aren’t buzzing their coasts with a whole bunch of B-1, B-2, and B-52s why? Because our liberal leaders don’t want to hurt the Russians’ feelings? Oh, and what’s with the prop planes? I guess living in a country that is still stuck using 1940s technology sucks. Hey Russia- We’re America, fuck yea! We have flush toilets, electric lighting, and jet engines on our bombers here.

MikeMusky

Let us also not forget that Russia and Iran signed a military cooperation agreement three weeks ago. I am convinced that we (the US) are preparing for war as well. That is why we are stockpiling oil. The BS story that the Saudis are trying to hurt the US fracking industry is just that – BS. The Saudi Royal Family doesn’t exist without the US Military. Just my opinion but I am pretty sure I am right on this one. Military cooperation agreements? Attacks on other country’s financial systems? Annexing part of another country? Israel kills an Iranian general and the Iranians send a message to Israel through the US about how a response will be coming? Merkel and Hollande rushing to meet Putin at a Moscow airport? I could go on and on and am afraid WWIII has already begun.

Russia is desperate for war? The United States of America specifically Victoria Nuland has more or less unleashed the Fascist Party of Ukraine on the border of Russia. The West is fomenting this, history is not on the side of Barack Obama, or Victoria Nuland, and the gaggle of Neoconservatives who make up the upper ranks of the Obama Administration. Kiev is one of the historical capitols of Russia. Everything about the culture of Crimea is Russian, more far eastern than Western. NATO is stoking the flames of world war, at the behest of the Wall Street, City of London, IMF, BIS, Club of Rome system of monetary globalization. Russia is just saying no to the “New World Order”, and exerting some semblance of sovereignty as a nation on this planet. It’s the chicken hawks that control the United States that actually want war. A Clean Break, and re-building America’s Defenses authored by the Project for a New American Century are the blue prints for World War III. It was the Rand Corporation in collaboration with the Saudi Royal Family, and British Aerospace Engineering that created the Al Yamamah Slush fund “The Dove”

The Dove is Al-Qaeda, it’s 9/11 it’s Saudi Oil for Western arms.

What’s going on is only a continuation of “Operation Gladio” of the Cold War era. the Doctrine of PNAC is “full spectrum military domination”

They needed a pearl harbor event to kick start all of this… that was 9/11. The fuse for global war was lit that day.

Putin has no regard or respect for Obama. He knows Obama is a paper tiger and will do nothing.

Juror #8

More propaganda from the ZioTrolls.

Tmark Keefey

Yeah, Russia is terrified now they know US has both first strike & ability to prevent counter nuke attack from Space per last year so China or Russia tried to nuke in a war, their ICMB’s are allowed to get in air over their own nations then are detonated while their nuke subs are located & destroyed before launch so it is game over for them so they must look strong to their people or Putin is overthrown in Civil War but US will not attack them yet will never allow Russia to invade a NATO nation.

I notice most Americans don’t even know how US got the new tech going last year but they don’t need to so let them complain. Obama was smart in what he did and has nukes sitting on Russia now so of course they will fly little jets around US out of fear lol Republicans were part of it too.

Isaac Walls

If Russia wants to fly their bombers, or any other type of jet in these areas then it’s their right to do so. It’s no different thean what our U.S. Jets are doing.

Russia and China could probably put a kink in the US Navy and USAF, but a kink is a lot better than total annihilation. As for the ground war. Well, the US Army and USMC could hold their ground against China and Russia, but I don’t see them taking over China or Russia, lol. Nor can I see: Russia or China taking over the USA. The USA might rule the seas and air but no country rules on land, lol. As for Thermonuclear war, China, Russia, America, and the rest of the World would cease to exist. In laymans terms: Nuclear war is Russian Roulette with a fully loaded chamber.

JAFO

Russia nor the USA wants total war. Russia is on the defensive because Russia is surrounded by Nato countries. Russia feels shame that Nato has taken over a bulk of its former Soviet States. So it’s natural for a country to take up an aggressive defensive posture.

Ted Brown

Then maybe we should fly an F1 through Moscow’s radar.

JAFO

America recently stationed nuclear ready B-2 and B-52 bombers on European soil. It’s not like, Putins actions weren’t warranted. Don’t be fooled, the US military rattles Russian borders with its subs and air patrols as well. We never read about it, though. Because that’s not news to us, but it’s news for the Russians, lol.

ken

What makes russia the wild card is will they side with iran and decide to attack our middle east interests.

JAFO

We shouldn’t have an interest in the Middle East. Israel has plenty of nukes. America should focus on Asia and leave the Middle East and Russia alone. Europe can protect themselves. Hence, France and the UK are nuclear powers with sizeable navies.

JAFO

Iran was already defeated by the USA. Well, sort of, lol. Google Operation Praying Mantis. And this operation was at the height of the Cold War.

Sean Stout

The US is bound determined to bully Russia until they lash out at us. Let’s breakdown how we got to this point. First, the US wanted to invade Syria and kill tens of thousands of innocent civilians, just so Saudi Arabia can build an oil pipeline up to Turkey via Syria. You remember our friends the Saudis-the ones behind the 9-11 attack. Russia diffused that, so we had a beef with Russia as a result. Then the US sent gays over to Russia during the Olympics to try to antagonize them. Then the US overthrew the Ukraine gov’t and installed a puppet gov’t and demanded that Russia accept it. Then Crimea took a vote to go back to Russia and the US ignored a legitimate democratic vote. Then the US said Russia caused our 2008 economic crisis. Then the US said Russia shot down that Malaysian airliner last summer. You can see who the bully is here. You can see who is trying to provoke who. Why the US has decided to take on Russia of all countries is beyond me. It’s like a suicide pac.

Hershel’s Head

And then you reached the point where you wrote “Then the US sent gays over to Russia during the Olympics to try to antagonize them.”
lols, THAT you believe?

Sean Stout

That is a fact. We sent Billy Jean King the tennis player, catilin cahow, here right from ESPN: “President Barack Obama sent Russia a clear message about its treatment of gays and lesbians with who he is — and isn’t — sending to represent the United States at the Sochi Olympics.”

Now do you believe??

Hershel’s Head

Sure, it’s possible, but you said to “antagonize.”
Was it to send a benign message?
Or to antagonize?
I see them as two different things.

Sean Stout

Definitely antagonize. As evidenced by all the other stuff we’ve been doing to Russia ever since, like overthrowing Ukraine to install a puppet government.

Husker Du

Pretty good minus the Saudi Arabia doing 9/11, that was Israel all the way.

Sean Stout

It’s one of the two…….Saudi Arabia or Israel. Nobody “out of the know” knows for sure.

BacSi

Howdy Sean Stout. You say that the US overthrew the Ukraine gov’t and installed a puppet gov’t and demanded that Russia accept it.

It’s all false, and easy to prove. All you have to do is read what Putin and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said they were going to do YEARS before it happened.

At the CIS summit in Minsk in 2006 (Two YEARS before Russia invaded Georgia and Eight YEARS before Russia invaded the Ukraine) Putin threatened to impose a “Cyprus model” on Georgia by recognizing the breakaway republics of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov’s February 2007 statement (one year and a half before Russia invaded Georgia and seven YEARS before Russia invaded the Ukraine) that Russia will not permit Georgia to join NATO (or get too economically close to the West) was an assertion that he does not regard Georgia as a fully independent or sovereign state.

Radio Free Europe; Radio Liberty May 8, 2008; Commentary: Russia Versus NATO In The CIS

In May 2008 (three months before Russia invaded Georgia and six YEARS before Russia invaded the Ukraine), at the NATO-Russia Council, then-Russian President Vladimir Putin told U.S. President George W. Bush; that if Ukraine does enter NATO (or get too economically close to the West), Russia would detach eastern Ukraine (and the Crimean Peninsula) and graft them onto Russia. Thus Ukraine would cease to exist as a state.

Putin also said Russia regards NATO’s eastward enlargement as a threat. Therefore, if Georgia receives membership, Moscow will “take adequate measures” and recognize Abkhazia and South Ossetia to create a buffer between NATO and Russia. Putin has subsequently lifted earlier sanctions on these provinces and has given them consular status — a formal legal status preparatory to declaring their independence.

Putin thus hinted that Ukrainian resistance to Russian limits on its freedom of action might be met with a Russian backed “Kosovo-like” scenario — a nationalist uprising in Crimea to which Russia could not remain indifferent.

(You did read that last part? Putin said there would be a nationalist uprising in the Ukraine six YEARS before it happened.)

The Russo-Georgian War took place in August 2008.

The Ukrainian revolution took place in February 2014.

All of the above was published in May of 2008. Three MONTHS before Russia invaded Georgia, and six YEARS before Russia invaded the Ukraine.

This proves that your opinion that the US overthrew the Ukrainian government and set up a puppet government is false. Putin planned the “uprising” long before there was anything to “up-rise” against.

Radio Free Europe; Radio Liberty May 8, 2008; Commentary: Russia Versus NATO In The CIS

Sean Stout

I suppose you’re going to say Russia caused our 2008 economic meltdown too right? Not the housing bubble, not the endless wars, not the outrageous gas prices……no it was Russia that collapsed our economy-right?

BacSi

Howdy Sean Stout. I don’t know who ever told you that the US ever blamed Russia for the 2008 economic Crisis, but they must have been pulling your leg.

The 2008 Economic Crisis was caused in 1999 when Congress and Clinton eliminated the 1933 Glass–Steagall Act. Banks were then allowed to package worthless mortgage contracts (called Equity Investment Documents or Sub-Prime Loans) and then sell them to investors instead of having to absorb the bad loan losses themselves. The crisis was exacerbated by Congress ordering Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy up $2.4 trillion worth of the worthless Equity Documents in order to help poor people (who had no way to pay off the loans) buy a house they couldn’t afford to make payments on. It was a conscious decision to move the banking industry from safety and soundness to affirmative action. The loan ratings on the worthless documents were manipulated up and the Insurance on the Derivatives Market amplified the losses ten-fold.

Rather than swapping out the worthless Equity Documents created by Congress with 30 year T bills, that would have balanced out he books and given the US 30 years to pay off the paper, our government just started printing money. We are up to $18 trillion so far and every time they start to cut back the money printing process the Market falls. By the next election it will reach $20 trillion. We are spending money like Greece, and it’s not going to our military.

Other countries bought up the worthless subprime loans just like our banks did. If anything, the rest of the world has every reason to point the “blame” finger at Democrats Barney Frank and Chris Dodd; the creators of the whole mess. By the way, they still have not brought back the Glass–Steagall Act laws, so you can expect another crash at some point in the future. No, I do not expect that the Republicans will bring it back either.

Who told you that Russia had anything to do with it?

As far as the endless wars, once the USSR broke apart, terrorism world wide almost stopped in its tracks. Then the Kosovo fight started and the US used NATO to force the Serbs to step back. That got Russia Very angry and they formulated their “Near Abroad” Doctrine that the US rejected. Basically, it says Russia wants its old USSR Empire back and NATO stay away. Since the West rejected Russia’s new doctrine, Russia has taken every opportunity to oppose the US, including giving Iran Nuclear Weapon technology and invading both Georgia and the Ukraine because they were developing close economic ties with the West. (Radio Free Europe; Radio Liberty May 8, 2008; Commentary: Russia Versus NATO In The CIS; published that story YEARS before the invasion. It reported that Putin told Bush that Russia would cause an uprising in the Ukraine, Russia would then intervene and split the country in two, and annex what they wanted.) Which is EXACTLY what they did to both countries.

Russia developed their oil fields to stabilize their economy, and over the last 20 years have made quantitative improvements in both their Nuclear and conventional weapons systems. For the last 10 years Russia’s fighter aircraft have far surpassed the US fighter aircraft. The last time that happened was in 1950, when Stalin used the superior MIG 15 to invade Korea. This time Russia has invaded two countries and ANNEXED the parts they wanted. Russia is not finished, it wants MORE.

Or is Russia simply reacting to weakness, to be the aggressor by taking advantage of a perceived weakness of US leadership?
It can’t exactly be both.

Lord_of_the_Sheeple

Russia is obviously reacting to U.S. and NATO messing around in Ukraine. NATO moving into Ukraine for Russia is similar to the USSR putting missiles in Cuba in the 1960s. Just as the U.S. wouldn’t accept that, Russia will not accept Ukraine in NATO. Simple as that.

That’s not apologetics for Russia. It’s just the reality.

Russia caused the Ukraine mess. Putin told Bush he would do exactly what happened years before it happened.

Naval strategy is completely different. Blackjacks come towards an F35 CAP, they don’t chase them down and escort them. They are much less worrisome than Chinese diesel electric subs.

BacSi

Since the F35’s top speed is almost half of the TU160, you MUST assume they will not have to chase after them. But when we did the war games using the old Tomcats, speed and range was critical for defending the fleet. And that’s back when their anti-ship missiles only went Mach 3; not like the ones they have today that go Mach 5. We have had stealth aircraft for 30 years now and we are only just now putting them on our carriers. This is not being handled correctly at all.

Rumplestiltskin

Don’t buy into this crap people. This is total BS and our military is trying to use this as a PsyOps opportunity to manipulate you into believing that our military must make war-like adjustments to its strategies in dealing with Russia.

That Russian plane which is decades old and far too slow to be of any use in strategic bombing, is being used to poke the beast, (America). If those planes were the TU-160, (the swep-wing supersonic bomber) we should probably take notice

Our country has been doing the same thing out of our base in Alaska for decades, and now that Russia is doing it, our government is doing everything in its power to make it look like Russia is the boogyman trying to give justification to its next proposed move.

By the way my friends, what makes you think that we have anything to fear from any nuclear bomber regardless of whether it is a turbo prop or jet? Both Russian and the United States have weapons which make use of these old tools, out of date and useless, except for this game of tag, they are both using to see just how far they can push.

BacSi

Russia has air superiority. Has had it for 10 years. We are not going to get into a nuclear war over an invasion of part of the Ukraine or part of Poland. You need conventional forces to push back conventional forces. Otherwise it wouldn’t have been necessary to have troops in Germany during the Cold War. And the USSR wouldn’t have needed 80 divisions on the West’s border.

The Russians are afraid of a US first strike. Those Bears are loaded with nuke tipped cruise missiles. NATO’s plan is to launch a first strike then shoot down whatever they have left. Besides the bombers there are subs parked off the US coast that will launch as soon as we do. MAD

At least the Russians have not started a war on the U.S. border like we have in Ukraine. The president of Ukraine is a central banker. I wonder who is trying to start WW3 and why?

And why would one expect the Russians to respect America when they see every other dictatorship or terrorist organization just walking all over America?

Just as we can launch our Tomahawk SLCMs right into the Kremlin.

BacSi

Except we don’t have our bombers patrolling the edge of Russia. They gotta be flying to launch.

David Allentown

We stopped doing that 20 years ago. B-52s are a lot more capable than the Bears are.

BacSi

Howdy David Allentown. But this isn’t a discussion about what’s more capable, the Bear or the B52. You indirectly said that Russian aircraft carrying clusters of nuclear cruise missiles flying up and down our East Coast, West Coast, Gulf Coast, Polar Cap, and flying into various NATO airspace does not worry you because of the MAD doctrine.

That except for 187 F22 aircraft, the Russians have complete air superiority over the West, and after 30 years of having stealth aircraft, we are only now just putting the horribly inferior F35s on aircraft carriers does not worry you. In the last 70 years there has only been one short period when the West did not have air superiority – even though we had nuclear weapon superiority. And that triggered the Korean War. OK, I got it. You are not concerned. We disagree with each other.

David Allentown

The emasculation of our armed foces over the past half-dozen years, combined with the simple wear and tear of our aircraft due to combat in the middle east is quite concerning. The F-35 is a very expensive and less-capable replacement for the F-16.

However, we have more than enough air defense squadrons along both coasts to remove any Soviet threat if we went to a higher level of defense than our current peacetime level. Our Air National Guard interceptor F-15 and F-16s are just as capable and deadly as our active forces, in large part to them being a full partner in our Air Expeditionary Forces for nearly 20 years. So yes, while the Active Forces are not as numerous as they used to be, we are far from being toothless.

BacSi

Howdy again David Allentown. I appreciate the quality of the F16s and F15s that make up our air defense, and the quality of the fine airmen who fly them. I also appreciate the courteous nature of our disagreement very much. But let’s consider the effect that the elimination COCOM has had on Russia’s air force. Specifically the SU 27 and the SU 30MK variant.

About ten years ago there was an air-war game between the US and India. India used the SU 30MKI, and the very old MIG 21 Bison vs. our F 15C. They won 90 percent of the engagements.

One of our pilots who flew in that war game mentioned this:
What was remarkable was that Israel sold the Russians our F 16 Air to Air radar and Jamming pod (thanks to COCOM). The Russians bought them up and placed them in the MIG 21 (there are very many MIG 21 aircraft scattered around the world). The result was an invisible aircraft to radar and an extremely maneuverable aircraft to spot visibly.

That was 10 years ago.

Some of Russia’s missions to Alaska have included tankers, their TU 160s, a Bear designed to pick up radar signatures, and included several of their SU 27s flying escort.

We have met them with our F 22s. But 187 of them simply are not enough to cover all four sides of our country and NATO.

You are correct. The MAD doctrine is our primary defense. But the quality of all of Russia’s weapon systems have taken a quantitative leap, which opens the door to conventional attacks like Georgia and the Ukraine. What’s next? Finland? Moldavia? Do we go to nuclear war if Russia seizes Vilnius and Kaunas to provide a logistics road to Kaliningrad? Russia is being tempted to solve problems by force because the West is not either capable or willing to stop them. And when I say not willing, just take a look at the posts on this page. It looks like close to a majority of the comments regarding the Ukraine completely believe Russia’s propaganda that the US caused the crisis.

David Allentown

I’m certainly glad our Air Force isn’t just 187 F-22s. They may be fifth-generation aircraft, however we do have many other combat fighters that have been proven in combat over the years. The Canadian CF-18s are also a very potent air defense force. I’m certain our NORAD partners would not take kindly to seeing TU-95s heading towards British Columbia or the Maritime Provinces in the Atlantic, flying great circle routes from bases in Russia, that would also pass by RAF Typhoon bases as they go though the Iceland Gap.

I’m trying to recall if any F-15 has ever been shot down by a Soviet-designed aircraft? Or an F-16? or an FA-18? Now we did lose an F-111 during the attack on Libya back in 1986 I recall… But then, they flew against Soviet export models by non-Russian pilots.

Now the Yugoslavs fired a salvo of surface-to-air-misses at an F-117A that they were observing during daylight during the bombing of Belgrade in 1998. Well the F-117 wasn’t ever designed to be in combat in harms way during daylight anyway.. so a salvo of missiles aimed manually by an observer over a repetitive flight path led to an unfortunate experience.

Given that the Baltic States are NATO Article-5 nations, Mr Putin may try to stir up Russian minorities the same way he did in Ukraine. However Ukraine isn’t a part of NATO (A poor decision, we should have expanded NATO right up to the Russian border in 1991) and neither was Georgia. Putin would then have to deal with NATO fighters attacking the “rebels” he would send in. Also we could (and hopefully would) send in some squadrons of combat aircraft into Poland, for example to address these Putin surrogates as part of our commitment to our NATO allies.

Not much is publicly known about our facility at Tonopah, Nevada over the past decade or so since the F-117s were moved to Holloman AFB, New Mexico. It’s still open, and is not welcoming to civil aircraft that have made brief emergency landings at it. It does have the F-117s in hangars that are partially disassembled, but there also have been photographs of some F-117As flying over Nevada over the past few years. This is the facility that our Air Force Foreign Technology Division sends interesting aircraft for evaluation. I recall we had an entire squadron of MiGs, and some Communist Chinese-built export models that we had our pilots fly DACT against during the Cold War. We still fly Red Flag training today. I’m sure some of our friends have provided the latest Russian interceptors, along with some very advanced MiGs that the former Iraqi Air Force had.

Also no one really knows what’s at Groom Lake. We did have a lot of Soviet Radar gear in Nevada also. Now i’m aware the Russians have some very advanced Integrated Air Defense systems that they sold the Iranians… But we also have our ways of learning about those systems.

Yes, it will be interesting if we do ever actually have to go into combat against the Russians.

Leading from behind tends to lead to a false sense of security and then surprise when all of a sudden you are punched in the nose.

If the Russians violate either American, Canadian or any other NATO air space their planes should be shot down. If their navy violates NATO territorial sea space their surface ships and subs should be sunk immediately. That will send them a message. During the Yom Kippur War Israel did not hesitate attacking Russian military supply ships destined for Arab ports and sank one of them. When Russia mobilized seven airborne divisions close to the Middle East Israel was ready for the Samson option. Israel showed guts the US and the west need to show some guts otherwise Russia will continue with aggressive military tactics. Russia still has dreams of world domination…the US and Israel stands in their way.

The Russians (and the Chinese, North Koreans, Iranians, ISIS….)know that they have an 18 month window left to grab all the territory they can. There will be no American response to any aggression’s as we are not concerned with international affairs under this presidency and want to just “get along”. Climate change, perceived social inequalities and historical bigotry, the importation of illegal aliens, the selling of green cards to any foreign investor with 500k, the increase of foreign tech workers (h1b visas) that work cheaper than American graduates, transgender operations for criminals, gay bathrooms and showers, animal rights, gay marriage and gay adoption, all are more important than protecting honest decent God fearing Americans-under this government.

Folks, I’m just a bit concerned that Russian war drums are beating. Go look at Pravda.RU and there are articles there that are pretty inflammatory. What has me more concerned whether China and Russia are in cahoots. They’re definitely getting more friendly to each other.

Russia does Europe and China does the Pacific.

superflex

Scary,
Russia is surrounded with over 100 NATO bases on their doorsteps and were supposed to believe that Russian flights in international airspace near our borders are a threat.
TBTB need a war to hide the upcoming financial collapse and the Sheeple are stupid enough to believe Russia and ISIS are threats.

It was several months ago, maybe a year, when I read about Russian troops coming to Colorado for joint training with U.S. Military for “domestic emergency” situations. And we have the “Open Skies Treaty” for mutual over flies. And the last several administrations, the Article IV, Section 4, Constitutional mandate that ” the United States SHALL….protect the States against invasion” has been Abandoned. So why are these military recon games being played?

If anyone thinks Putin is just sabre rattling, there is a strong delusion.
April 15, 2014
The Pentagon on Monday criticized a Russian jet’s repeated buzzing of a
U.S. antimissile ship sailing in international waters in the Black Sea.

It is reported the destroyer was crippled by jamming device attached to the bottom of the jet.

These operations are practice runs for the real thing. Hopefully the US military isn’t so pompous as to believe that this kind of thing can’t happen.

America seems more and more like mystery Babylon spoken of in the bible.

Revelation 18:2, “And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.”

A Russian conglomeration move to Israel in the latter days to take a spoil.

Ezekiel 38:13-16, “Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil? Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it? And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army: And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.”

Fooledbyu

But the Lord is the one who drags Gog (Russia from the North so He can judge her).

Ezekiel 38:17-23, “Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them? And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face. For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel; So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground. SOUNDS NUCLEAR TO ME! And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.”

And so this is the end my friend of them

Ezekiel 39:1-9, “Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD. And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD. So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel. Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.”

New Guard of the Republic

Veritas vos liberabit

It looks like General Patton was right again. We are going to end up in a war with the Russians at some point. The Russians are preparing and the United States of America is shrinking its military and retiring many of their nukes. How foolish on the part of the USA. As Roman author Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus pointed out in his book De Re Militari “Si vis bellum para pacem”, “If you want peace, prepare for War”. It is just as true today as when first published in the 4th century.

teaisstronger

NORAD, COULD YOU PUBLISH THE SCHEDULE FOR THE RUSSIAN BOMBERS ALONG THE EAST COAST?

I live in NJ and would like to go to the shore with my binoculars to see the Russian bombers flying off shore. During WWII people use to go to the shore to watch American ships being torpedoed by German U-boats off of NJ.

NORAD, back in September in Northern NJ I heard the distinctive sound of those counter rotating engines over NJ. Did those Russian bombers with their H-bombs fly over NJ?

WE WERE WORRIED THAT OUR BOARDERS WERE NOT PROTECTED.

Well now our East Coast boarder is being protected by the Russian Air Force. Is the Chinese Air Force protecting our West Coast.

AT LEAST THE RUSSIAN AIR FORCE WILL BE WIPING OUT BLACK DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED US CITIES.

In a bright flash of atomic fire, America will get converted from a GOP-Democrat nation into a TEA-Conservative nation. Thank you Mr. Putin.

They know that Obama is very weak, and are leveraging that to their advantage.

Mr. Bernard Wijeyasingha

Okay now clearly state why NATO and US forces are at Russia’s doorstep. If we take that step they will too.

Craig Hobson

They know Obama is a weak sister.

Sanders

Why wouldn’t they? this administration has already shown its self to be weak and non committal when “drawing lines” (see Syria). The psychological win it represents for Putin will allow for the continued economical beating the Russian people are taking to be justifiable. Not to mention what free reign in Ukraine is doing to inflate egos of Russian leadership. They could take over Alaska and the President would still balk at decisive action. He’s a laughingstock in the international community, as well as our own military. He’s impotent.

Mark Chapman

You’ll know they are serious when they send over the Black Jack. They are just toying with us because they know our nukes are old, rusty and in all likelihood wouldn’t make it out of the silo.

You can’t trust them, but on the same note we’re not going to go to war with them. Please, they look at us as fools and at the Europeans as a bunch of whores, as one military commentator said a while back

Chainsaw McGerk

I’m just amazed the Air Farce was able to keep an F-22 in the air long enough to get it close to a Bear bomber for a photo-op.

The F-22 is perhaps the most unreliable and costly-to-maintain aircraft to ever enter the inventory….high-tech junk that experiences at least one critical system failure every hour and requires 30+ hours of maintenance for every one aloft.

Gregg

So the Russian Confederate Air Force is still doing air shows, that’s impressive!

John Richard Walsh

Blessed Virgin Mary at Bayside, NY apparitions 1970-94 said Russia will utilize the manpower of China as they make their great thrust forward and that we do not have much time before our freedom ends as Russia utilizes missiles to subdue USA. Invasion in Alaska, Baja California, Nicaragua. Reds will race across Canada east and USA to savannah and then north to Virginia where US forces engage and lose. Putin will take over and GOP will love it.

“Aggressive”? What does that mean? They are allowed to do as they wish over international waters just like we do near their shores.

Mark Marquis

The Russians need to mount REAL , nuclear warhead tipped cruise missiles under the wings of those bombers on simulated strike missions, if they want to make their point stick. REAL nuclear weapons on those strategic bombers will cause a brown stain in the back of Obama’s shorts that even the White House laundry won’t be able to get out.

BOOK OF DANIEL

The King Who Exalts Himself

36 “The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will say unheard-of things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been determined must take place. 37 He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all. 38 Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses; a god unknown to his ancestors he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price.[d]

40 “At the time of the end the king of the South will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood. 41 He will also invade the Beautiful Land. Many countries will fall, but Edom, Moab and the leaders of Ammon will be delivered from his hand. 42 He will extend his power over many countries; Egypt will not escape. 43 He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and all the riches of Egypt, with the Libyans and Cushites[e] in submission. 44 But reports from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in a great rage to destroy and annihilate many. 45 He will pitch his royal tents between the seas at[f] the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.

2 Thessalonians 2:8

And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming…….

The real danger to America is not just a filthy muslim sodomite by the name of Obama alone, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a filthy sodomite like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of a gay Obama presidency than to restore the necessary,commonsense ,Godliness and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a creature for their president or any democrat.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr.gay muslim Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the gay fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. “The Republic can survive a gay Obama, who is, after all, merely a gay fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made this gay muslim creature their President.

The Russians are up to something.

Back on track folks.
The Russians are yanking our chain, we can yank theirs but if one bomber gets shot down then the real negotiations will start. Putin has already spanked Obama like a little girl once and will do it again. It’s not even close and Putin knows it. Putin has no issue with a military skirmish because he knows Obama’s a wimp and would never be able to rally the American people because we don’t believe in him. Putin knows that and so do 90% of the American people . No one is going to line up behind Wimp Obama. What better time for Putin to make his move?
